The Spa Wellness at TriNoma

ABBEY: With so much stress and pressure from our last apartment project, we booked for a massage at The Spa (Trinoma) for me, Wilma and Ate Sol. 

I chose Aromatherapy (lavender oil) Swedish massage. I washed before the session and had a cup of ginger tea. My masseur hit all the right spots that I want to feel relaxed and I even slept. It was so good when I heard my back crack as well as my neck. I felt I was more “aligned” after the massage. 

I had two more ginger tea and I’m done.

WILL: We put a lot of stress on my sister’s shoulders and for her to relax, Abbey and I went to The Spa for some muscle kneading! 

The Spa is one of somewhat a luxury spa in Manila. We booked at their TriNoma branch, Ate Sol and I requested for a deep tissue massage. 

Upon getting inside the place, you can feel its serenity. The shower area is clean and sad to say that the steamroom is not available that time. The locker is spacious but I find it quite unhygienic that I need to put my shoes together with my stuffs inside it. 

The massage did not satisfy me nor relax me. Why? The massage area is very-very cold! Even the masseuse turned off the AC it is still cold and stiffens my body even more! And I requested for deep tissue massage but Ms Joy seems to have no energy to knead my aching muscle. Huhu. 

Abbey and Ate Sol are totally satisfied with their massages. Well, maybe they have the good masseurs. Hmp! 

Worth to visit and experience. But be clear on how hard your massage will be.

Royal Palm Restaurant's Lunch Buffet @ Orchid Country Club

ABBEY: So much to be thankful for. That’s why we decided to catch up with our friends over lunch at Royal Palm @ Orchid Country Club.

They have Western, Indian, and Asian dishes.

They had me at tandoori chicken. I really love those specially with mint chutney, briyani rice, naan or pita bread.The chicken shawarma tasted a bit different as they put sweet-chili sauce on it.

I also liked their first batch of baked fish with tomato. They were crunchy and firm. Coffee, tea and softdrinks are in free flow. For dessert, you can have brownies, cheesecakes, kuehs and hot dessert. All of these are for SGD 24.90 per person when you purchase Fave.

WILL: We booked 2 restaurants but the price was hiked-up due to Easter celebration. I looked for a good deal, of course using FAVE, and I saw the Royal Palm International Cuisine located at Orchid Country Club. 

Exactly 12noon they opened their door. There is a live music and the singer go round to check-out the diners experience and what they are celebrating. Yes! It is my birthday and our anniversary celebration! Yey! 

How’s the food? If you love curries, you will like Royal Palm. I am delighted that they offer salmon head curry! It is a must to try! Oh! Dip the fried mantau on it’s sauce. Yumm!! Their kway teow has this chewy texture and a “restaurant” quality. Freshly cooked pita bread. 

The place is spendid, far from the stress of the city.

COLLIN'S® Restaurant at Cineleisure

ABBEY: After Wilma’s beauty treatments, it’s time to have our lunch. We had it at Collin’s (Cineleisure Orchard). The place is cozy; it also has booths like in diners. 

I had their Signature Crispy Chicken Cutlet that comes with fries, coleslaw, buttered corn, mesclun salad, and garlic and cheese sauce. The salad dressing has a hint of orange as it was tangy and sweet while the corn is soft and juicy. The main item didn’t disappoint. It was crispy, moist and no bones. All you have to do is cut it to bite-size pieces and enjoy. All this for 15 SGD+. With all the flavors, it’s a good thing they serve fruit-infused cold water as well as warm.

WILL: Abbey is not yet finished with his April’s Dine-Out plan. After my hair removal sessions, we went to Collin’s Grille at Orchard ??. 

I want a rice and a pork for my meal, so I ordered Collin’s Signature Roasted BBQ Sauce Pork Ribs. The flavour sipped deep inside the pork meat. It is tender and proves that it is one of their signature dish. The meal doesn’t come with a rice, I ordered one cup of it. Well, it is a delight! Yummmm!! 

The price is just like Astons and the good thing is you do not need to beat yourself with a long queue.
